How to cross build initial toolchain Example with sparc64 1/ install a cross toolchain pkg install sparc64-xtoolchain-gcc 2/ cross build world make CROSS_TOOLCHAIN=sparc64-gcc TARGET=sparc64 TARGET_ARCH=sparc64 buildworld 3/ install the world in a sysroot make CROSS_TOOLCHAIN=sparc64-gcc TARGET=sparc64 TARGET_ARCH=sparc64 installworld DESTDIR=/sysroots/sparc64 4/ build the required port $ cd base/binutils make CROSS_TOOLCHAIN=sparc64-gcc CROSS_SYSROOT=/sysroots/sparc64 package $ cd base/gcc make CROSS_TOOLCHAIN=sparc64-gcc CROSS_SYSROOT=/sysroots/sparc64 package the package are in base/gcc/work/pkg/*.txz and base/binutils/work/pkg/*.txz To add a plist for a new binutils target $ cd base/binutils make CROSS_TOOLCHAIN=sparc64-gcc CROSS_SYSROOT=/sysroots/sparc64 makeplist > pkg-plist edit the pkg-plist and remove everything which base does not provide via the elftoolchain END QUOTE Note the "DESTDIR=/sysroots/sparc64" and the "CROSS_SYSROOT=/sysroots/sparc64" in the example. Are there consequences for this for what you are proposing to do? I do this sort of thing targetting powerpc64 at times. I also sometimes build pkg at times this way for powerpc64 to bootstrap it. === Mark Millard marklmi at yahoo.com ( dsl-only.net went away in early 2018-Mar) _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
